Episode Details

Warren Stephens, US Ambassador to the UK, is hitting his first-year stride with bold, unapologetic views: he’s urging Brits to stop constantly apologizing for their colonial past and embrace the enduring legacy of British influence—calling it “the greatest inheritance one nation could give another.” He’s also pushing Britain to unlock its fossil fuel reserves, citing massive price gaps with the US, and is laser-focused on deepening the “Special Relationship,” even as he warns of undersea cable vulnerabilities and urges UK defense spending hikes. Despite a rocky start when Britain initially blocked US use of RAF bases, Stephens says tensions are now behind them and the alliance is stronger than ever. A finance titan turned diplomat and major GOP donor, he’s already negotiating a new lease on his residence—and he’s not slowing down.
